Literary prints for Kindred Spirits

Hello! My name is Jenny Williams and I'm the artist and owner of Carrot Top Paper Shop. I'm so pleased you are here.

The idea that inspired Carrot Top Paper Shop is near and dear to my heart.

It began when I was pregnant with our daughter, scouring the internet for cute, literary-themed artwork for her nursery-- and I couldn’t find what I was looking for anywhere!

When I found out we were having a little girl, one of the things I most looked forward to was sharing my love of reading with her. I wanted her to have artwork in her room that would inspire curiosity about, and admiration for, the strong literary heroines I love so dearly.

Since I couldn't purchase what I wanted, I decided to take matters into my own hands, and I created my first literary heroine banner.

I wasn't planning on starting my own business at that point, but after receiving feedback from friends and family, I realized there were other moms out there looking for the same thing, and I wanted to give them exactly what I had been looking for.

A few months later, after many long days of working through my baby's nap times, I released my very first product line of five literary heroine prints, and five bookish quote prints.

I've always dreamed of a job that didn't feel like a job, and creating literary artwork for fellow bibliophiles is definitely it.

I absolutely love connecting with fellow literary-fans and kindred spirits. I am quick to tell inquiring minds that I have the kindest customers a girl could ask for. I love talking about your favorite books, and getting your excellent feedback on future products! (Follow @carrottoppapershop on instagram to join the party.)

I have worked on Capitol Hill and in the corporate world, but making literary-themed art work for you, and being the mom to my baby girl, is by far my favorite job.

My hope is that my shop has exactly what you need to brighten your daughter's room, classroom, your book space, or boring office cubicle. Carrot Top Paper Shop has designs for kindred spirits of all ages. And as Anne Shirley says, kindred spirits aren't as scarce as I used to think. :)

A note about my process:

I illustrate all of my heroines and quotes by hand in my tiny, sunny, home studio and make them beautiful with rich Pan Pastels (and a little colored pencil). I use a local business here in Oklahoma for printing all of my art prints and bookmarks, to ensure optimal quality for long-lasting usage.

My next product line will be launching in October, 2017! Join the Kindred Spirit club for updates: http://eepurl.com/bD2_tb

When will the "Hey Carrots" mug be available again?

What prints can I choose for my Literary Heroine Banner?

Your Literary Heroine Banner is totally customizable! Meaning, you can choose any five prints from my shop. Choose just heroine portraits, just quote prints, or mix and match to create the literary banner that most speaks to your heart. :)

Thank you so much for your interest! I am currently working on being able to offer wholesale. If you would like to be contacted when it is available, please send me a message with your email address. I'd love to hear from you!

What if I'm sending my order as a gift? Can you include a note?

I would love to! If your order is a gift, I won't include the receipt, and I'll include a personal, hand-written note card. Be sure to let me know what you would like the note to say in "notes to seller" at checkout.

Can you create a custom print for me?

Unfortunately, I do not currently have the time to do custom orders. If there is a particular design or quote you would love to see in my shop, let me know by sending me a convo. I would be happy to consider it for a future design!

What heroines will you include in your shop in the future?

Don't see your favorite literary heroine? I create new heroines solely based on votes from Kindred Spirits (members of my e-newsletter). If you would like a say in who the next heroine will be, make sure you join the Kindred Spirit Club (see FAQ on how to join).

What exactly is The Kindred Spirit Club?

The Kindred Spirit Club is the best part of Carrot Top Paper Shop. It's technically just my e-newsletter, but it's also the place where I spoil you: I do secret giveaways, special discount codes hidden from the public, sneak peeks on upcoming products, and let you have a say in the next Carrot Top heroine. Joining the Kindred Spirit Club also gets you access to the Kindred Spirit facebook group, where you can interact with like-minded readers.
